Elections ***Second Democratic Primary Debate play-by-play thread: Night 1. ***

[Fight To Win]

I got nothin’. But they are entertaining the way Jerry Springer is entertaining, which is also sad.

Trump: "He hit me on my hands... no one's ever done that before. He said I have small hands and if I have small hands something else must be small.. I guarantee you there's no problem."

Rubio: *surprised Pikachu*

 

[DrDune]

Of course, they are pandering to the centrists.

The horror.

It’s pretty sad this is seen as a negative by many in today’s climate.

 

[Fawlty]

Warren is right ethically, but wrong game-theoretically. We should officially reserve the preemptive nuke, and only ban it above-top-secretly.

 

[bobgeese]

I almost wish Beto was president just for the LULZ

Maybe Swallwell as VP

I unironiclly think Swalwell is a strong pit bull VP.

 

[SBJJ]

I'm cool with mean Bernie

 

[JamesRussler]

The human gaffe machine with an indefensible record, isn't long for the front runner position.

It seems to me that Warren and Sanders are both competing for the same group of voters. Perhaps one of them could overtake Biden, but not both.

 

[cottagecheesefan]

I like Bernie, but he looks pretty bad physically. He is hunched over, and his skin looks like it is peeling off

Warren needs to smoke a bowl before she debates. Relax jeebus

Said this last time. She seemed like a chihuahua trying to make some noise.

Her facial expressions and body language is so dramatic

 

[VivaRevolution]

The horror.

It’s pretty sad this is seen as a negative by many in today’s climate.

They had 3 decades of selling us out to corporate and foreign interests.

Time to pay the piper.

 

[Fawlty]

"nukuler"

shut up bullock(s)

 

[HockeyBjj]

Gotta say, I did not expect nuclear policy to be a question tonight

 

[JudoThrowFiasco]

No first strike is the among the dumbest foreign policy agenda in existence. Even the most passive of allied states ripped Obama when he tried to suggest it.

 

[VivaRevolution]

It seems to me that Warren and Sanders are both competing for the same group of voters. Perhaps one of them could overtake Biden, but not both.

And if a contested convention is ruled out, one will bow out, but until then, they will both work for every delegate they can gain for that floor fight.

 

[updowniri]

double answer

 

[Reactionary Corporatist]

I joked with my friends that she definitely meditates naked in the woods. And occasionally after taking shrooms.

Dude, If I was a 70 year old man I'd have the major hots for this chick.
1) I thought she was in her 50s and im shocked to learn she's 67, she looks AMAZING for her age
2) Yes on meditating in the woods naked after taking shrooms.

Williamson is every Boomer Hippy's wet dream.

 

[Kona Bear]

I think some LCD laced hippy might have grown her in a jar, yes.

Probably along these lines.

 

[Fawlty]

in b4 Pete again says "I'll be the current age of the current president in 2050-something"

 

[Amerikuracana]

None of them have eaten a huge, weird looking booger yet.. But one of the HAS lost to a guy that was fairly unlikable BEFORE he did.

 

[jeffk]

The debate shows there is a divide in the Democratic nominees with Warren/Bernie versus the rest.

And then Williamson is on her own little island.

Williamson and O'Rourke and Hickenlooper are Bullock are done. Ryan is probably done.

Buttigieg and Delaney and Klobucharar are doing well enough to stick around.

 

[Happy Man]

Take that Pete, taking money from every evil corporation.

Get him Bernie. But Pete has done well tonight

 

[JudoThrowFiasco]

Warren is right ethically, but wrong game-theoretically. We should officially reserve the preemptive nuke, and only ban it above-top-secretly.

It's the political equivalent of saying I'm only going to hit you if you hit me first....to francis ngannou

 

[Fawlty]

They're going to institute a closed fist rule for Bernie's eyepokes. Pete, guard your eyes!

 

[VivaRevolution]

Ohhhh, Bernie just dropped the bomb on Pete.
